"It was absolutely worthwhile and taught me much about myself and my own interests. However, it was not what I had expected and the program itself was not a good match for what I wanted."
Jessa H Trinity University
"It was one of the best choices I have ever made. Studying abroad is something that everyone should do at some point in their college career. It made me practically fluent in spanish, and I gained such a great knowledge of the city of barcelona, and spain by studying there. It was such an international city, so it was great to ge..."

This experience made me realize how small and connected th..."
